Years ago I made some oatmeal cookies from a recipe on the package of oats. Over the years I have adjusted the recipe to be more nutritious. We eat a lot of these cookies (or "tookies" as P says). Some of us even eat these cookies for breakfast. This is the most recent variation.
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 sticks butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 ripe banana
2 cups flour
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3 cups oats
2 cups chocolate chips.
Cream butter and sugars. Add the egg, vanilla and banana.
Mix the flour, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and add to the butter mixture.
Add the oats.
Add the chocolate chips.
Spoon onto a cookie sheet and bake 12 minutes at 325 degrees F.
Enjoy. Some of us like to keep them in the refrigerator and eat them cold.
